A5 Western Transport Corridor Scheme - Amendment 3
Leave out all after ‘Minister for Infrastructure’ and insert: ‘failed to take the necessary actions to ensure that the A5 Western Transport Corridor scheme could withstand legal challenge; calls on the Minister for Infrastructure to make saving lives on this road the absolute priority, while also treating landowners fairly and respectfully and to put in place other road safety measures and better public-transport options for the North West if the A5 faces further delays; and further calls on the Minister to ensure that commencement of an agreed legally compliant A5 scheme begins as soon as possible and to set out clearly how the project will stay within the carbon-budget limits required by law.’
